I've been told that actually only when I'm on here anyway.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
Molested Pals.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
I over the holidays spent quite a bit of time
visiting my family back in Country Queensland, Australia, which I'm
from a very small town, as we've talked about on
this show, and one of my favorite things when I
go back home is hearing all of the small town gossip,
you know, because when you're from a small town, and
people only from a small town will understand this. And

(07:26):
there's the gossip that goes around and it kind of
gets more and more exaggerated as it passes.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
Through people, and it's currency too, yeah, because there's nothing
else going on. And I imagine your mother is a
breast of all the small town gossip.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
What do you say about my mother? You might be
talking about my mother's breast.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Your mother's breasts are the gossip of the small town.
I reckon she's across at all.

Speaker 4 (07:49):
She is.

Speaker 5 (07:50):
She's a huge town gossip.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
She's a former hairdresser. Yeah, like she would be like
back in the day. She's basically Facebook. She knows how
to get the gossip. She knows how to redeliver the gossip. Yeah, distribute.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
It all goes through my mum's breast to gossip filter, exactly,
you and suckle on the gossip breast of mama Die.
I had a little suckle on my mum's gossip teat
And I think I've come up with a new segment
for the show.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
Okay, sure, it's a segment.

Speaker 4 (08:19):
Wait are you going to play that or reminded of singer?

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Well, do you want you do whatever you.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
Want, Okay, I'll sing it and then you hit that thing. Okay, Okay,
a segment I'm calling small town gossip. Every town's got
it small town gossip, did they small town gossop that works.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Super well, goes good? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (08:38):
I think it's seamless, first day back, no bumps.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
We want your small town gossip this afternoon. And it
might be that you live in a small town and
there's hot gossip going on right now. Or it could
be like Bree, that you went home to your small
town for summer and you got filled in on the goss.
Wasn't there any when you were there?

Speaker 4 (08:58):
Yes, the biggest or the gossip I loved hearing about
the most. And look, I don't know if this is
true or not. That's why it's gossip. But the gossip
going around my small town was there's this one guy
who's playing for one of the local soccer clubs. Okay, right,
and apparently he got done for match fixing. They were

(09:19):
there was like some underground betting ring, right, And turns
out he was getting these other people to bet for him,
and you know how he was fixing the matches. He
was the goalkeeper on one of the local.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
Teams so he could let the shots out.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yes, if that gossip is true, that is good gossip.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Who's bidding on small town country Queensland soccer.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
Times are tough?

Speaker 3 (09:47):
Yeah, but I guess you would think as a match fixer,
you're like, no one's going to check.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Yeah, and that's maybe why. I mean, who knows if
it's true. But that's the gossip I heard from my
small town.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
We want your small town gossip, SI gossip, salacious gossip,
family gossip, the legal gossip. The only thing we can't
do is names. Yeah, you've got some gossip for us.
We'd love to hear it this afternoon.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
You can remain anonymous. You can drop it on the
text machine on nine six, nine six. What is your
small town gossip?

Speaker 3 (10:18):
The hottest story popping off in your small town this summer?
Let us know who's doing who and where and why?
Wearing what.

Speaker 4 (10:28):
Franklin's new segment potentially launching right now. Small town gossip. Ever,
down's gottap small town gossip. That's right, we want you
small town gossip. You know, the gossip that goes around
small towns. And you're like, did you hear about such
and such?

Speaker 3 (10:48):
I can go home to my small town. This summer,
I got any of the goss, any of the gossip.
My mom didn't bring me any over summer as well.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
So come on, Colleen.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
So we're leaning on yours at the moment Country Queensland
of match fixing in the local soccer competition, which is juicy.
It's real juicy because that's a blight on the entire
football club. It really is. That is true. So we've
asked you to share the goss from your small town
with us this afternoon. No one willing to go on
here with it, but we have had some good texts
come through.

Speaker 4 (11:16):
Yeah, there's been quite a few good texts. We'll kick
it off with this one. Someone text her and said,
in my small town, there was a bunch of anonymous
complaint letters that were being sent to the council. They
were from everything about noise, parking, dogs, you name it,
there was a complaint letter about it. Turns out they
were all being written by the same person and they

(11:37):
hadn't been caught out because they were reporting their own
house to throw people off.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
What a weird scam.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
That's so strange.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
Can I just say, as someone who loves to write
a complaint. Doesn't mind the odd complaint. Yeah, no one
will take your complaint seriously if it doesn't have your
name on it.

Speaker 4 (11:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
No, one's just an anonymous complaint. They're not as soon
as you put your name on it. Power someone else sticks.
And we asked for your small town gossip. They said,
I live in a place called south Head. My mate
found his missus was cheating on him with his cousin.
And then they have ticked through with a typo and

(12:17):
that wait, sorry, she was cheating on him with her cousin.

Speaker 4 (12:22):
I was going to say, was it his cousin or
her cousin?

Speaker 3 (12:24):
She was cheating with her own cousin.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
That's way more scandalous.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
Gross.

Speaker 4 (12:32):
What about this one?

Speaker 3 (12:33):
That's gross.

Speaker 4 (12:34):
Many years ago, we had a teacher at our high
school that was pretty young and kind of hot. The
rumors were that he was in an adult film. Everyone
started talking about it, and there was a nickname that
went around the high school. After graduation, someone found the
link to the adult film. Turns out it was true,

(12:56):
and his adult film name. We can't well, I can't
read that out.

Speaker 3 (13:01):
No, I don't think you can go into teaching if
that's obviously we need teachers. We need good teachers. We
need people who are passionate about the job.

Speaker 4 (13:09):
Maybe it was his twin.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
Oh, like Phoebe's twin could have been his twin. And
then you know, why should he not be able to
teach with the Ursler twin the porn star. Yeah, there's
small town gossip. Someone's text in and said, there's a
local dairy somewhere around here that is definitely selling weed.
People grab it with their milk.

Speaker 4 (13:31):
Wow, what would that dairy be called?

Speaker 3 (13:34):
I don't know, but to different be a code word, right?
Can I get some fresh greens?

Speaker 4 (13:40):
Can I get some skunk milk? No? That's just kind
of blatant.

Speaker 10 (13:44):
Isn't it.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Yeah, that's different?

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (13:46):
Can I get some weed?

Speaker 4 (13:47):
Yeah? Someone else ticks through. This is small town gossip,
they said. The baptist preacher was indoor gardening with the
greengrocer's wife. The green grocer was indoor gardening with the
mayor's wife. The baptist preacher's wife was also indoor gardening
with a bunch of random.

Speaker 5 (14:08):
Where where where is that place?

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Thanks for your goss, guys, Hey, thanks for trusting us
with your guys.

Speaker 4 (14:15):
We appreciate small town gossip and.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
You want to send Brie wants to get the link
to their high school teacher's video.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
If you've got it, yeah, just if you've got it
on hand, it would be good, huge news in the
name community, big news for Karens. Actually, poor Karen because
they got painted with that brush. How many years ago now,
it's been a number of.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
You, I reckon it's been close to a decade.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
Whether the karens Karen to be a manager, to be
a Karen the.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Meanest thing too, because they couldn't complain about it, because
we're like, oh, okay, Karen, we were right. We told you.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
It's not all Karens hashtag not all, not all Karens.
We love most of you. Karen's correct, It's just a
couple that ruined it.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
But you've got some good news for them, some great.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
News, because turns out, according to some studies, there is
a new name that is on the chopping block to
become the new Karen. So Karen's going to fall off
into the distance and just become a normal name.

Speaker 3 (15:20):
Of Karen can retire. Now.

Speaker 4 (15:22):
Well, what they're saying is because I've done quite a
bit of research into this. Actually, because Karen was the
name given to that certain type of person for the
boomer generation. So the name that is now emerging is
what they're saying, is the Karen for the gen x's.

Speaker 3 (15:41):
Okay, yes, yep, because.

Speaker 4 (15:42):
They're moving, you know, into that category now.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
Of course, there hasn't been a baby born with the
name Karen for a long time, long time, and last
time didn't help either.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
Turns out the new Karen, so the gen X version,
I just think.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
Jessica, jess Jessica, Jessica, Jessica, Jessica.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
Most people are saying they believe Jessica is the new Karen. Right,
what are your thoughts on that? Thoughts and feelings? First
of all, think about it, Jessica.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
You know, I'm trying to. I can't think of one.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
I can think of one.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
It's a name that has really fallen off.

Speaker 5 (16:28):
It fits.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
There's no babies being born called Jessica, is there.

Speaker 4 (16:32):
Because we're we're talking gen X.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
There's jess and Jesse's, but I don't know if there's
any Jessica's.

Speaker 4 (16:38):
Okay, I can think of some like a Jessica. I know,
Jessica Simpson, Oh yeah, Jessica Simpsons.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
Jessica Alba Jessica.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
She doesn't really have that vibe to me.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
No, they don't. Okay.

Speaker 4 (16:54):
I've also done some more research because this is the
obviously the story that's doing the rounds on the interwebs.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
Just like a Biel.

Speaker 4 (17:01):
These are all hot Jessica. Jessica's are hot.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
Chestain, They're all hot.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
They're all hot, They're all smoke and hot. What would
be the millennial version is what I've tried to do
some research into, and I think I might have it.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
I think I've got it too, should be only okay,
let's see, I've got the same name on the counter. Three,
So the millennial millennial version of Karen yes, three two? One?

Speaker 4 (17:29):
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa? That was from you?

Speaker 3 (17:34):
How did you just hear me out? Stop being such
a Claudia. She gets it, gets its ring to it.

Speaker 11 (17:44):
It would just make me think of Claudia, just raging.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
Imagine you work, you work in hospo, and you've got
some millennial woman. I've got a real Claudia on table.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
I don't think.

Speaker 6 (17:56):
I don't think it's got the right ring to it.

Speaker 9 (17:58):
Definitely Clint does, does Clintlint?

Speaker 3 (18:08):
It really does, Clint.

Speaker 6 (18:12):
Silly Clint a dumb Clint.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
A hairy Clint.

Speaker 10 (18:18):
I can never find Clint Clint.

Speaker 7 (18:29):
Podcast The Tea Live from l A with mccarny.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
Dean, The Star from Kath and Kim Magda Zebanski obviously
awful news last year when she told everyone that she
was battling a very rare and aggressive cancer. Now it
gets even sadder, it gets.

Speaker 12 (18:48):
Much out of brief. I want to give you guys
an update on this. So people scammers, I don't even
know how you would describe the type of people they
have been online pretending to be her, pretend to be
magu Zebanski right, and asking for donations toward different treatments.
So people are falling to this. You know that one photo,
in fact, is so intense that magors Evansaky herself actually

(19:13):
had to post this on her own social media and say, guys,
this is not me. This is not me asking you
for money. If anyone's asking you for money, it's definitely
not me. This Instagram is the only place you'll hear
from me, And if you want to talk to me,
you talk to me here, But anywhere else it's not me.
And that people are trying to scam others. This does happen.
There's been quite a lot of athletes that have had

(19:35):
to deal with this as well, and it's just so dark,
isn't it.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
I saw Reese Witherspoon spoke out this week about how
her likeness is being used in like a dating scam,
and it's sad to think that some people would truly
believe that Reese Witherspoon is on a dating app asking
for money. Just they just never would No celebrity would
ever ask you for money online. These things are scams,
and the people that do them are just predators.

Speaker 5 (19:59):
It's just all I think they're the saddest of them all.

Speaker 4 (20:02):
Like who's using a situation like Magda Zabanski, like battling
cancer and then going, oh, here's an opportunity to scam
people out of money. Yeah, you know, it's just awful, Like,
go get a real job.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
Hey have you new Year, Dean? How's your New year?
Going to New Year?

Speaker 12 (20:20):
I haven't been scamming anyone, pretend onlinery.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
I saw I've been looking at your Instagram story. I
saw you got scammed out of your shirt in Miami.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
No shirt for Dean in Miami. My clothes got stolen.

Speaker 12 (20:33):
I was running along clothes Gold Dignity left that at
home as well. I couldn't find that either.

Speaker 3 (20:39):
Really, I thought Dean was doing the twenty sixteen challenge,
but no, that's just his face now. He just hasn't changed.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
Yeah, it doesn't move, doesn't from twenty sixteen to now.

Speaker 5 (20:49):
Yeah, you could dab you bag.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
You can't wrinkle if you can't frown. That's the tea
with Dean McCarthy, our own personal Kindle and Hollywood correspondent.

What do you mean it's not a plan. They accidentally
took it to the airport. Listen to what you're saying.
I know I accidentally bought a porcupine with me to
the airport.

Speaker 3 (21:45):
It's one of my fatal floors, Bree. I want to
believe the best. I want to see the best.

Speaker 4 (21:50):
In everything, but also use your common sense.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
On December twenty seven, so like the busiest week four airports,
airport security found in Wellington found what's called a practice
bomb inside a passenger's checked bag. What do you mean
a practice practice bomb? So it was an aircraft practice bomb.
It's described as a non explosive dummy designed to replicate

(22:17):
a lethal military explosive in training scenarios. So what it
is is it's a bomb that doesn't explode, but it
looks like a bomb.

Speaker 4 (22:26):
It feels like a bomb, sounds like a bomb.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
It wait, no, it doesn't sound like a bomb because
that doesn't go off.

Speaker 4 (22:32):
Does a beep or anything though, I.

Speaker 3 (22:34):
Don't know, but it weighs the same as a bomb.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
If you look at you exactly feel exactly like the
real thing.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
And if you were the if you were the guy
looking through the X ray machine.

Speaker 5 (22:45):
You would automatically think that that is the real thing.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
There's no difference, there's no difference, and you wouldn't even hesitate.
I feel you just that looks like a bomb. It
was in the guy's checked bag, so it didn't even
go through. That is like going under the plane.

Speaker 4 (23:01):
There is no way jetstar is letting that thing on
because it's over eight Q exactly right, you know, like
the's already stuffed up there.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
For one, it's made of lead. It's real heavy. This bomb,
it looks like a bomb. It looks like a cartoon
bomb like it.

Speaker 5 (23:19):
Just so, what happened? What they say to him?

Speaker 3 (23:22):
So they didn't shut the airport down? They didn't, They
didn't evacuate. They called in the bomb squad and they
dealt with it. And I guess the guy's getting in
trouble or something. I don't know, is he in.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
Trouble or was he just transporting it to like where
he needed to take it.

Speaker 3 (23:39):
I don't know, you're in trouble for transporting it wherever
you need to take it. You took a bomb to
the airport? Is as bad as it gets.

Speaker 5 (23:44):
Put it in the mail. Oh, that's probably not a
good that How do you get it to where you
need it?

Speaker 3 (23:49):
How do you move a bomb?

Speaker 4 (23:50):
You know, like let's say, if it's the training bomb
like that people need, you know, like the bomb squad
train with these bombs because they need to. Like, how
do you try Let's put.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
It on the back of an army truck and have
an army person driving. I guess something like that. I
don't know. It's it sounds like something that you just
should automatically know not to pack in your bag to
go to the airport. Like I went to Las Vegas
over the summer break, and I was nervous about flying

(24:21):
with my power bank, like my battery pack thing that
you charge your phone with, And I was like switting bullets.
I was like, am I going to get pulled up
from my power bank? Bomb?

Speaker 4 (24:31):
And a bomb? Same thing? Yeah, I guess some people
would argue power banks can turn into.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
Well, that's what I was concerned about. What I was
concerned about. It's the worst case scenario of that feeling
that we all get when we go through airport security,
where you go, actually do I have any explosis? Yeah,
you've never touched them. You're like, Actually, do I have
a hang gun? Do I have a knife? Could there

(24:59):
be do me a brick of cocaine in.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
My work bag? Do I have eight kilos of married
jauana in my bookiy board bag?

Speaker 3 (25:06):
Am I carrying myth and fitterman?

Speaker 4 (25:09):
I don't know. Now.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
The guy's like, oh my god, I can't believe I
left a bomb in my bag. I'm so sorry. I'm
such a g god.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
I was meant to take the other bag and then
I ended up grabbing this one because.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
It was the extra pockets my husband's bag. I'm sorry,
it's his bomb. No harm, no foul. We do want
to ask you this afternoon, because it does happen. I
know the bomb thing is not a relatable example at all,
nor the handgun, but the knife probably if you're a hunter,
there's a chance that you left a large knife and
you carry on bag and it went through security.

Speaker 4 (25:42):
I was joking before. My partner's a nurse, and no joke.
One time she took her work bag as her carry
on and we were kind of in a rush and
her bag got pulled up at security.

Speaker 5 (25:54):
Eight pairs of scissors.

Speaker 4 (25:56):
I'm like, eight.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Nurses go through a lot of.

Speaker 4 (26:00):
A lot of scissors. Did you know their one use only.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
Blew my mind crazy? Yeah? Yeah, friend told me that
single use scissors.

Speaker 4 (26:07):
At the hospital. You can only use appearances. Check them out.

Speaker 3 (26:10):
Your partner is not letting those scissors go to waste.
These are perfectly good.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
I'll take that home with me.

Speaker 3 (26:17):
Nine six nine six. That's how you can text us
or you can call us for free on eight hundred dials.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
It in.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Our question for you is what was accidentally still in
your bag when you went to the airport. Oh no,
we can keep you anonymous if you want.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
Yeah, absolutely, it's z it MS bringing Clinton podcast.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Can I just be clear bomb bomb?

Speaker 4 (26:42):
Ily you were saying bomb so.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Many people thought I was saying bong b o m G. No,
not bong. Although I don't think you can take a
bong through the airport either.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
I think if there's no Marria Juuana residue.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
Oh, you can say it's a vas Yeah, you can
say it's a snorkel.

Speaker 11 (26:58):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Well, no, it wasn't that. It was a bomb. It
was a military training bomb. It went through Wellington Airport
over the summer holidays, and we want to know what
did you accidentally leave in your bag when you went
to the airport. We had a lot of messages about us.
Let's go first to Michelle Cure to Michelle Hi.

Speaker 4 (27:15):
Michelle, Hi, guys, Happy New year mate. What did you
leave in your bag accidentally when you're going through the airport?
Hunting nice?

Speaker 8 (27:25):
Hunting nice in the bag. And we went to a
concert in Auckland.

Speaker 4 (27:29):
How many inches? Oh, I don't know. Actually was it was?

Speaker 3 (27:34):
It smeared with pig blood? No, okay, no, obviously was
he gusted because they would have to confiscate that and
throw it away, right, but the pig was. That's quite good.
Thanks Michelle. Very good. Let's go to Paula.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
Hi, Paula.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
Hi, tell us, Paula, what'd you leave in your bag?

Speaker 8 (27:58):
Well?

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Camping around Europe?

Speaker 3 (28:01):
Menhat Oh, I know we've got a dodgy Paula line.
Wait there, Paula. We'll try and come back to your
cadence here.

Speaker 4 (28:07):
Hi Caden, Hi Cayden.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Yeah, hey, good afternoon, Good afternoon. What was left in
your bag accidentally when you went to the airport, Caiden? Well,
I was actually moving from Auckland down to the West coast,
and long story short, I had a decommissioned rocket launcher.

Speaker 4 (28:23):
Caden, A decommission to a legit rocket launcher that has
fired actual rockets, and you had you decided You're like,
we're going to take this to the airport.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Yeah, Well, I was moving island and I don't want
to leave Alan.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
So you can't go to a new island without your
decommissioned rocket launcher. Where are you going from? You're going
from the west coast of the South Island to where.

Speaker 11 (28:44):
No?

Speaker 8 (28:45):
Sorry, so I was going from Auckland down to the
west coast.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
I know I would have thought that would happen in reverse.
I thought the coasts would have the rocket launcher, but.

Speaker 4 (28:53):
As a decommissioned rocket launcher set your back, Caden.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Uh, Well, I actually got it from a friend.

Speaker 4 (29:00):
This is sounding more and more.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
Dog was your friend in el Kaider? Like, who has
a friend with a decommissioned rock Thanks Kate and you madman,
so many good messages on this's the thing that was
accidentally in your bag when you went to the airport.
Someone said, a cutthroat razor for my little brother's twenty
first prison like Sweeney Todd.

Speaker 4 (29:20):
Yeah, probably not a good idea to take that, and
you carry on. Someone else said, I recently traveled overseas
from Auckland and I went into the transit lounge in
Brisbane was looking through my bag for my mints when
I discovered I'd left a whole lot of weed in.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
My Oh no, well, I imagine it goes straight up
the bum, doesn't it.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
But you already have flown like you've already gotten away
with it.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
Yeah. Yeah, see you're feeling about arrogant.

Speaker 4 (29:47):
Yeah, so do you risk it? I don't know.

Speaker 3 (29:49):
No, you get rid of it. My partner accidentally still
had nangs and a nang cracker in his bag coming
back from Australia. He just got a telling off and
was made to put it in the bin. That's fine.
You just say you're looking to make a cake. Talked
last year about that person who made pasta on a plane.
You just say you're looking to make a cake on
the plane. You're looking to ier cake.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
Yeah, you just say I'm a traveling chef exactly. I'm
a traveling private chef.

Speaker 3 (30:12):
I accidentally took a syringe and needle on the plane.
Again for context, I'm a VIT nurse and it was
in the pocket of my jacket. He's flying in your
VIT jacket.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
Yeah, I guess it was a nice VIT jacket. Someone said,
it's a nice VIT jacket, you know, like it's just
a classy jacket.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
A VT jacket that can take you from day to night. Yeah, yeah, okay,
you know ones.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
With the patches on the on the elbows.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
I think you're getting it confused with a professor.

Speaker 4 (30:40):
Oh yeah, no, you'd never watched. There was a show
in Australia. What was it. There was this guy and
he wore a Cheese Greater hat and he had one
of those jacket.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
Like a tweet jacket with the leather elbows.

Speaker 4 (30:51):
Yes, and he would travel around and do house calls
to people's dogs and stuff.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Oh okay, yeah, maybe it was him.

Speaker 5 (30:58):
It could have been him.

Speaker 3 (30:59):
My step there packed a brick of washing powder taped
up to look like a brick of cocaine in my
mum's suitcase. Mum and her sister were off to Ozzie
for a trip. Yeah it didn't go down. Well, that
is a classic dad joke gone real bad.

Speaker 5 (31:14):
I don't know if i'd forgive someone for that.

Speaker 4 (31:17):
Like you could be put on all kinds of lists
for jokes like that.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
Because ultimately the joke has paid dividend, Like it's done
what you wanted to do. Yeah, your partner has been
hauled aside at customs because they suspect her of having
a brick of cocaine in her luggage.

Speaker 4 (31:33):
Like if I had a cavity search done, depending on
my mood, I don't think i'd forget I don't think
I'd forgive that joke.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
Because she also can't go on no, no, no, that's washing
powder because she has no idea how it's in there.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
They don't know.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
She pleads innocence. She goes, I have no idea, and
they're like, sure, you don't.

Speaker 4 (31:49):
Can you imagine the pure terror you would put your
partner through. You're right, they don't know where that's come from.
What about this one? This one's wild, says I went
to jury service. So they've gone to the courthouse with
half a bag of nose beers left in my purse.
I'd gone through security and the X ray machine and

(32:11):
was in the waiting room trying to find my AirPods,
and there it was, sitting right there in the first pocket,
looking up at me. I felt so sick and I panicked.
I felt a lump in my throat. Then, to make
things worse, I was the third to be picked for
the jury.

Speaker 3 (32:28):
They were like, you're in, but you're not in the
jury box. We're putting you in the bit where where
the criminal sits.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
It's now your try.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
Congratulations, you get a trial.

Speaker 5 (32:38):
It's yours.

Speaker 3 (32:39):
Another weed one, and this might be the most kiwi
story you'll ever hear it says I accidentally took weed
in my bag to the airport. I got to customs
and I saw the guy about to wave me through,
and it flashed through my head as I realized it
was still in there. So I just had to run
back to the bathrooms and get rid of it. The
funny thing is the guy in customs was actually the

(33:02):
one who gave me the weed for my birthday. That's outrageous.

Speaker 4 (33:07):
That is such You're right, that is such a quintessentially
Kiwi story.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
Doesn't get more Keywi than that one.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
More. Someone said, not accidentally, but my mom took a
car bumper to the airport and checked it in for
my uncle. So embarrassing. That's bogan. No wait, that's that's
that's bogan. If your mom is transporting a bumper from
one end of the country to the other on a plane.

Speaker 4 (33:30):
On a plane, I wonder if the bumper had its
own seat, you know, Yeah, what about this is the
last one. I accidentally left a pair of hairdressing scissors
in my bag in November when I flew to Auckland.
As they were searching, I was panicking because I also
had an adult vibrator and something else in my bag,
and I thought that's what they were looking for. Can

(33:52):
you imagine, imagine when they pull out the.

Speaker 3 (33:55):
Scissors and you're like, oh, thank god, oh thank god.

Speaker 4 (33:58):
Well they pull out a big knife, like oh, oh,
thank god, thank.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
God, they pull out ad commissioned rocket launcher. You're like,
don't like, I thought you're going to find my dil.

Speaker 7 (34:13):
As it m's Brinklint podcast.

Speaker 4 (34:16):
Something I tried to do on the holidays Clint was
get off social media, tried to not be on social media,
and I was literally off my phone way less.

Speaker 3 (34:24):
You're off your phone way less, off my phone way more.
That's good, Yeah, that's it. You're trying to trick me
and trick me.

Speaker 4 (34:33):
Yeah, I was. Also.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
I was also off my phone way.

Speaker 4 (34:35):
Later, doubled my phone usage.

Speaker 5 (34:37):
It was great.

Speaker 3 (34:37):
I got a personal best.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
I tried to be off my phone, but I came
across this new social media app that just drew me
back onto the phone. A new social media, new one.
Well I can't say that it's new, but I've just
new to you. Yeah, there's no way I'd better one

(35:00):
hundred bucks that you're not on it. Okay, because I
don't think this app is for you? Right, Like, if
there's one person that this social media app is not for,
it's you.

Speaker 3 (35:10):
Oh Now, the competitive part of me wants to be
on the app.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
Whereas I think it is the perfect It might be
the only social media app that I should be on.

Speaker 3 (35:19):
Perfect for you, awful for you, awful for me?

Speaker 4 (35:23):
Yes, what do you think it is? I'll give you
one guess.

Speaker 3 (35:26):
Well, I can't say the thing that I think it is.

Speaker 4 (35:31):
Um, don't do those gestures around the producers.

Speaker 3 (35:35):
I don't know something to do with adhd. No.

Speaker 4 (35:39):
Can you imagine the app that I am now on
my latest social media app? It's called Letterboxed.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Oh, I know it. Yeah, I'm not on it.

Speaker 4 (35:53):
I'll produce Ella's loving it? But am I right? Though?
Awful for you, so great for me?

Speaker 3 (36:00):
Boxed the app where you log the movies that you've watched, right,
and you put your own little reviews in there?

Speaker 5 (36:05):
Correct?

Speaker 3 (36:05):
Yeah, funny you say that because I watched the gag here.
If you're new to the show, is I don't I
haven't seen any movies. I haven't seen any, but I
am actually on a quizt to see all the movies
and so over summer, I probably watched six or seven movies.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
You made a huge dent and I like six seven.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
Or six seven, and I you know what, I considered
getting this on my third or fourth movie. What I went,
I should get them? I should get that letter box
app or I should get the IMDb app.

Speaker 4 (36:35):
What would you do on the app? Post my reviews
for what the three movies you watch a year?

Speaker 3 (36:42):
No, I've actually no, I'm doing more now.

Speaker 4 (36:44):
Okay, how many do you reckon?

Speaker 5 (36:46):
On average? How many movies do you watch a year?

Speaker 3 (36:49):
I think I'm doing one a month at the moment.

Speaker 5 (36:54):
So I don't think bother. You shouldn't bother.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
No, but how good would my reviews be? Because I'm
quality over quantity, like, it has to be really good.

Speaker 4 (37:03):
I'll keep that in mind when I follow you.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
It has to have been reviewed by at least a
thousand people before I'll watch it far out? You know
what they need? They need another review from me?

Speaker 5 (37:13):
Who the world needs?

Speaker 4 (37:16):
What do you? Because one of my favorite things is
you have to pick your top four movies so that
people when they start following your profile, they get your
vibe if they want.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
To find your top four her Okay, Aaron Brockovich.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
That's a great film. Not on there.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
Oh sure, Shank Redemption.

Speaker 5 (37:33):
I actually didn't put that on there.

Speaker 4 (37:35):
I kind of. I think it's my four favorite at
the moment, yes Elfna.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
And this is these are correct, by the way, And oh,
the Lady Gaga documentary, but.

Speaker 5 (37:48):
That was actually quite an average documentary.

Speaker 4 (37:51):
To wrack it up, producers, you have one guess each
that Baseball one, she's the man leave their own No
one is a lesbian?

Speaker 5 (38:03):
Oh no, waits sorry?

Speaker 6 (38:06):
And Madonna, who's not a lesbian?

Speaker 5 (38:08):
She's yeah, she's a madonna.

Speaker 4 (38:12):
No.

Speaker 11 (38:12):
The Katie Perry documentary.

Speaker 3 (38:15):
Oh yeah, part of me?

Speaker 4 (38:16):
Yeah yeah, none of you were invited to follow me
on letter Box.

Speaker 6 (38:20):
You love Inside Out too, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (38:21):
I know what it is.

Speaker 3 (38:22):
I know what it is. I know what it is, Grete, No,
it's the it's the one where Kirsten Stewart takes her
girlfriend home for Christmas.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
I do love that movie. I do love that movie.

Speaker 8 (38:33):
Good.

Speaker 4 (38:33):
Yeah, that is a solid movie, but not on my list.
I shouldn't have asked you, guys, what else could be?
Just opens myself up to be absolutely showman.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
I guess we'll never know.

Speaker 4 (38:45):
Yeah, hit the.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
Ad no harm and trying to make the best of
a bad situation.

Speaker 3 (38:51):
England, Can I steal a quick poll around the room?
Christmas tree? Everybody's Christmas tree still up? Or down?

Speaker 4 (38:57):
She down?

Speaker 3 (38:58):
You had a real one, though, right, I had a
real one.

Speaker 4 (38:59):
Had to get rid of it.

Speaker 5 (39:00):
It was dropping pie needles like.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
No tomorrow down and did oh you know when we
took it down it wasn't dead. But is it still
lingering around the property.

Speaker 4 (39:09):
Yeah, it's sitting at the front.

Speaker 3 (39:10):
Yeah, it's dead.

Speaker 5 (39:11):
I got to get the chainsaw out and get rid
of it.

Speaker 11 (39:15):
Okay, what can you video there?

Speaker 4 (39:18):
What are you? Are you questioning whether I actually would
get the chain saw?

Speaker 3 (39:24):
That's hot? Yeah, okay, I'll send you a private d
y claudio.

Speaker 6 (39:28):
Christmas tree mine is still up?

Speaker 4 (39:30):
Is that?

Speaker 6 (39:30):
And that's just dou to laziness. That's not as I
want it up.

Speaker 3 (39:33):
It's not because you're holding on to the last Christmas
because they're coming up a month month since Christmas.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
And I put it up really late too, So let's
just cheer laziness.

Speaker 3 (39:43):
Okay, Christmas treet up or down?

Speaker 11 (39:45):
Didn't have one this year?

Speaker 3 (39:46):
Okay though, yeah, yeah, I put a picture on instagram
of us taking down the tree on the second of
January on my Instagram story, and I was I could
do I could handle it being up a bit longer,
but I was going overseas for like nine days, and
my wife was like, can you please take it down now?
Because I don't mind it now, but it will be

(40:08):
really over it by like the twelfth of January. So
I packed it away. Someone messaged and I was like,
is it a bit early? Someone missaged me and said,
our mom had our Christmas tree down and packed away
by ten thirty am on Christmas morning.

Speaker 8 (40:24):
What?

Speaker 4 (40:26):
On Christmas morning?

Speaker 3 (40:28):
Their mom packed up the Christmas tree and put it away,
put all the decorations back in the box, and put
the Christmas tree away for another year at ten thirty
am on Christmas Day.

Speaker 4 (40:39):
I didn't well, I replied, I doesn't like having the
Grinch as well.

Speaker 3 (40:45):
It's a weird juxtaposition because she's ten thirty on Christmas Day.
She's Christmasy enough to have a Christmas tree, but she
can only handle.

Speaker 4 (40:53):
It in no way? Is that ever?

Speaker 5 (40:55):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (40:55):
I said what? And they said my sentiments exactly. I
was having a mini nap because you know, we're up
early Christmas Day and all that stuff, and then I
came back and the Christmas tree was gone.

Speaker 4 (41:05):
Wait to spread Christmas cheer.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
I said to them, what was mum's reasoning for taking
the Christmas tree down so early? And they said My
Mum's exact words were, I'm sick of seeing it.

Speaker 4 (41:21):
My Boxing day. I could wrap my head around even Yeah,
I get it, I could wrap my head around that,
but there's no circumstance. We're taking it down on Christmas
morning is appropriate?

Speaker 3 (41:35):
I agree Boxing day is the earliest. That's because you're
getting rid of the wrapping paper, getting rid of the
boxes from the presents and stuff like that. You're cleaning up,
and you go, well, we might as well pack it down.

Speaker 5 (41:46):
People used to say.

Speaker 4 (41:47):
I think it was my mum that used to say
that it was bad luck to have it up.

Speaker 3 (41:51):
Past New Year's Okay, my mother and wives tale that
traditional to have it up until the sixth of January. Okay,
what that's like the day that's when it's meant to

Speaker 5 (42:03):
Yeah, I don't I don't mind that six of jen.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
Ten thirty am Christmas morning.

Speaker 4 (42:08):
I can just picture that Mum like just being like
I do everything for Christmas. I set it all up,
take it all down, so oh bloody pack it up
when I want?

Speaker 3 (42:17):
God, how lazy does Claudia seem compared to that person?

Speaker 4 (42:22):
That person like, Yeah, maybe you need to maybe you
need to get together with someone like that.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
You need their mom?

Speaker 4 (42:29):
Yeah, do you want to hook up with their mom?
Asking for them? I'm single? Ask if you, I'll ask if.

Speaker 7 (42:42):
CDMs Bree and Clint podcast.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
Both Brie and I, independent of each other, spent time
at A and E over the summer break. I've been
to A and E a lot over my time in
the summer holidays. I lost a tooth one year on
that's right, Christmas eve Eve. I can cust myself the
fridge door one year opening the door because it opened
the opposite way to what I thought and could into

(43:05):
my head. And then just to keep the tradition running
this year, I was at A and E on I
think the twenty third again, the twenty third of December.
Me personally, I'm excited to hear yours too, But first, okay, no,
I want to hear yours. I was, this is what
makes me think that maybe I do have ADHD. I

(43:25):
was putting the rubbish out and then I saw the
hedge and I was like, oh, that needs a trim.
So I grabbed the hedge trimmer and I just started
trimming the hedge. Just I was there to do one job,
I start doing another job. Yeah, put the battery and
started trimming. Didn't have any long pants or safety gear on.
And I put the electric still hedge trimmer into my
thigh while it was running. And it's the one with

(43:47):
the teeth that go back and forward like that. Not
a chain saw. It's a hedge trimmer. And I went
into my thigh and cut my thigh open.

Speaker 4 (43:56):
I don't think you know.

Speaker 5 (43:58):
Some people, how do I say?

Speaker 4 (44:01):
Some people are born to use power tools, and some
people maybe it's just not for them.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
I mean, it's a hedge trimmer, though, are we really
giving it.

Speaker 4 (44:13):
The exactly imagine if it was an actual power tool.

Speaker 3 (44:17):
The good thing about it is hadn't had much use
my hedge trimmer, so it was very clean and the
risk of infiction was low. But I still had to
go to A and E because I needed stitch.

Speaker 5 (44:28):
I don't even want to know what that looks like.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
There wasn't enough skin left to stitch because I'd cut
a flap. It's like a V shaped flap.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
That's awful.

Speaker 3 (44:36):
So they popped some starry strips on me and they
put a bandage on me.

Speaker 4 (44:39):
I could.

Speaker 3 (44:39):
I wasn't allowed to swim.

Speaker 5 (44:41):
Oh devastated.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
I wasn't a to swim over summer.

Speaker 4 (44:45):
That is the worst time to get an injury like that.

Speaker 3 (44:48):
Yep. I had to get some a whole bunch of
wound pads.

Speaker 4 (44:52):
Cleaning a wound all Christmas sake, clean my wound.

Speaker 5 (44:55):
What did you get for Christmas?

Speaker 3 (44:56):
A wound pad?

Speaker 4 (44:58):
Got some gauze. I also had a trip to the
emergency room. I can talk about it now because this
has been awful for me. But last Thursday, I was
playing some tennis, as you do on the holidays, playing
some tennis. My partners hit a ball across the net.
I've went to hit the ball back and it's come

(45:21):
off the edge of the racket and ricocheted in directly
into my left eye. And it was going so quickly
that I didn't have time to react or even close
my eye. So I've copped a tennis ball at speed
directly to my eyeball, so much so that I lost
my vision.

Speaker 5 (45:41):
This is not funny.

Speaker 4 (45:43):
I lost my vision for like five minutes, and I
could like I couldn't get it back, and I was
freaking out, like scary. And then I've gone back to
the place where we were staying, looked in the mirror
and my pupil has gone so tiny. I barely even
had a pupil in the eye. It looks so creepy.
When right to the emergency department, I went to an optometris.
Actually they were worried that my retina had detached at

(46:06):
the back of my eye, But turns out I just
had multiple abrasions across my cornea. So great news.

Speaker 5 (46:16):
Why why are you laughing? Fifteen love?

Speaker 3 (46:23):
I just believe you. Just stop talking so I could
do my joke.

Speaker 4 (46:27):
I don't get it. Can you explain it?

Speaker 8 (46:29):
Well?

Speaker 3 (46:29):
Because your partner's had the ball to you and then
it's off the edge of your racket into your eyes,
so obviously you haven't returned served.

Speaker 5 (46:35):
Yeah, it was just a ten.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
Oh she's up fifteen love, ye, and that's the end
of the game.

Speaker 4 (46:42):
Right, I thought there was some sort of eye tie.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
In fifteen Love.

Speaker 5 (46:48):
Why are you doing it like a wrapper now?

Speaker 4 (46:49):
Advantage Anyway, It turns out I went and.

Speaker 5 (46:55):
Had a propose.

Speaker 3 (46:55):
It's very traumatic, but.

Speaker 4 (46:57):
No like legitteral betic. But yeah, I went for an
actual eye test with.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
Special Instagram story from today.

Speaker 4 (47:04):
It's creepy.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
So she's been to the eye doctor today and they've
blown her pupils up. You nawed it. I was going
to say it before you said you look like mister
Burns on that episode where he gets high the moment
when Maggie shoots him. Is it the same episode?

Speaker 5 (47:17):
I think so they think he's an alien.

Speaker 3 (47:19):
Yeah, I bring you love. Yeah, that's what you look like.

Speaker 4 (47:23):
It was so weird because she had to put this
stuff into my eyes to make my pupils dilate so
she could check the back of my retina and I
got into the car and I actually couldn't see, but
I was like, holy hell.

Speaker 3 (47:34):
Yeah, I was like, I look weird. Well, good summer
for us, and we want to know from you this afternoon.
Eight hundred dials at him. Why were you in A
and E over the summer?

Speaker 4 (47:45):
Maybe it was a fish hook to your scrotum or
something could be a new Christmas present related injury.

Speaker 3 (47:52):
Yeah, like a like an electric motor bike to the scrotum.

Speaker 4 (47:58):
Just anything to the scrotum as well.

Speaker 3 (47:59):
We're scrotum based calls go to the top of the list. Obviously,
we want all body parts, but Claudia, please prioritize any
scrotum based.

Speaker 4 (48:08):
Yeah, there first, and then everything else is secondary.

Speaker 5 (48:13):
Out of that.

Speaker 3 (48:14):
Imagine a HDGE trimmer to the scrotum.

Speaker 4 (48:16):
Not get caught up in all its skin.

Speaker 3 (48:19):
Just about the good good job of trimm and the bush. Though,
we want to know why did you end up in
a and E over summer? I put a HITGE trimmer
into my thigh while it was running. Brie took a
tennis ball to the eye socket.

Speaker 4 (48:33):
Yep, almost detached my retina. Yeah, but multiple corneal abrasions.
Someone on the text machine said, that's so crazy. My
nephew also went to the ear with an abrasion to
his cornea. The doctor said it's extremely painful, but heals
quite well.

Speaker 3 (48:51):
Oh that's good to hear. We've asked that any scrotum
based injuries be prioritized to most other reason than it's funny.
I guess, and we've got one curse. And hi, oh, Kristin,
Hi Kristin, Kristin, Hey is it your scrotum?

Speaker 8 (49:07):
No, I don't have blood my partners.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
What happened to the old partner's scrotum? Kristin.

Speaker 8 (49:17):
So he was chopping up some woods for our fireplace,
and then my start, my nearly two year old, came
along and decided to help out and grabbed one of
his slightly smaller axes. And I'm just glad that he
took it the at the slate end rather than the
sharp end. But he took an ax to the to

(49:40):
the pelvit area. I guess my my son doesn't want
any siblings, and he ended up with a what is it?
Tingdon was ruptured?

Speaker 4 (49:51):
Oh my god. So he caught part of like a
hatchet axe to the pelvis.

Speaker 8 (49:58):
I'm just glad that it was the sharp so the hatchet,
because then it would have been from the brogs.

Speaker 4 (50:03):
Yeah, they can't.

Speaker 8 (50:04):
They definitely would have been.

Speaker 4 (50:06):
They can't stitch that back on.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
I mean, I've heard of an X wound, but that's
something else.

Speaker 5 (50:13):
Kristen, Oh, that's awful.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
Frozen peas and a bit of time on the couch
and he's all good.

Speaker 12 (50:19):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. That talk had some convincing to get.

Speaker 4 (50:22):
Him to go to a Kristen. The next time you
want to save money on firewords, next time you want
to save money on a for sector be just think
about it for a second again.

Speaker 3 (50:36):
Okay, we asked for a scroaden based injury and we
got it. Now let's go to Mike get a Mike, I, Mike,
were you and A and A over somehow or your
partner my partner was Okay, that's the story.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
I arrived to where we're building a house, yeah, and
went looking for it. I had a look in the
in the shipping container and the caravan didn't find her
and have Bentually strolled over and noticed the rod on
my was wasn't there. So I went to the worst
place it could be and found it at the bottom
of a ten meter bank and flowed down with her
next to it.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
No, Mike, your partner fell off a cliff on the
right on lawn mower.

Speaker 1 (51:11):
She went backwards off a cliff three or four meters.
She had dropped and then cracked through a few trees.

Speaker 4 (51:16):
Okay, and well, please tell me she's okay.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
She was okay. The team at Kowa Hospital were superstars
in an hour and a half X rays and all
the chicks. God, I think the concussion in the head. Check,
we'll see where it found. She meant married me, he
says camp he is all that good in the head anyway.

Speaker 3 (51:37):
Yeah, I'll tell you what, Mike, you are never ever
getting out of mowing the lawns ever again.

Speaker 1 (51:44):
She well, the irony, the irony is is only about
a few weeks after that date the diggers turned up
and tore her up the entire lawn anyway.

Speaker 3 (51:52):
Oh my god, it didn't even wasn't even worth it.

Speaker 4 (51:55):
Oh god, she's so lucky, Mike. I'm so grateful for
you guys. Oh my god, how's a lawnmower?

Speaker 1 (52:04):
It went in and got some repair work done. I
was gonna say, get rid of the two trees that's
just nacked perfect. Should he use the axe?

Speaker 3 (52:13):
Should use the ax?

Speaker 9 (52:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (52:17):
We asked for scroening based injuries, and we've got another.
Someone said a large treble hook to the crotch whilst fishing,
thanks to my ten year old. What is it with kids?
And I guess they're at I guess they're at nether
region heights, aren't they.

Speaker 4 (52:30):
Yeah, I feel like it's probably around that area.

Speaker 3 (52:32):
We kept on fishing for another four hours before stopping
at A and E on the way home.

Speaker 4 (52:37):
That's hardcore. I feel like I want to know where
that person's from. I could guess the naki Probably, do
you reckon? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (52:46):
Probably.

Speaker 3 (52:48):
My father dived into a peddling bowl up pool and
messed up his neck. For the whole of summer we
had to go to A and E together. He often
asked if I would stay with him if he turned
out to be a paraplegic. Silly, silly boy. Yeah, the
diving into a peddling pool thing is a classic drunk
dead move.

Speaker 4 (53:06):
It's just so silly. Someone said, my friend stuck her
fingers underneath the running treadmill and crush them.

Speaker 3 (53:16):
Yeah, that's a quick trip day, I reckon, And someone
have to compute this press. I reckon. They see a
spike in people over summer at A and E. Yeah, people,
is it because we've got more free time? Is that
what it is?

Speaker 4 (53:27):
And then you put alcohol with free time and an
equal stupidity.

The ZM podcast Network.

Speaker 3 (01:00:56):
I had what I would I would call a spiritual
experience over my summer break. I feel like I went
to church at this event, and i've I came out
of a changed man.

Speaker 5 (01:01:08):
No way, I attendant. You got baptized.

Speaker 3 (01:01:11):
I did well. I kind of. I kind of got
baptized a little bit.

Speaker 4 (01:01:14):
You're baptized in the river of Backstreet Boys. I was
in Las Vegas over summer.

Speaker 3 (01:01:22):
I got to go to Vegas for like a week,
and while I was there, the Backstreet Boys were playing
inside the Sphere, which is that big dome thing which
is covered in video screens on the outside and on
the inside. It's like two hundred and seventy degrees of screens.
They go all the way around you. It is the
single most incredible concert venue I've ever seen in my life.

Speaker 4 (01:01:44):
It's the first of its kind in the world.

Speaker 3 (01:01:45):
It's the first of its kind. Everything is geared towards
just the most insane production. And I got to see
the Backstreet Boys there on the last show they're doing
before they take a break and then they're going back
to the Sphere to do another residency. And I would
say that I was a back Street Boys fan when
I was like ten eleven, who wasn't And then all

(01:02:05):
of a sudden, it wasn't cool for a boy to
like the Backstreet Boys anymoso. I put that away. That's
so sad.

Speaker 5 (01:02:12):
Where's the girls? We kept on love on the.

Speaker 3 (01:02:14):
Backstreet Boys, and all of a sudden I was back baby,
Backstreet was Backstreet. I put some videos of this up
on my Instagram and even and they're in the videos.
You can't get a bad video inside the sphere. Those
videos are incredible. It does nothing to give you an
idea of what it's like inside there, like you.

Speaker 4 (01:02:35):
Know what it's kind of like, Yeah, I think like
watching the videos, it's kind of like you know in
twenty eleven when they released like a three D.

Speaker 3 (01:02:43):
TV Yeah similar, Yeah, I'm joking times like fifty thousand.

Speaker 5 (01:02:49):
Maybe three TV is ascarbit just.

Speaker 3 (01:02:55):
It genuinely blew my mind. And I went alone because
I was in Vegas alone. Yeah, and so I went
to the back Street Boys alone. I sat next to this.

Speaker 4 (01:03:02):
Can you say you snug some fireball shots in?

Speaker 3 (01:03:06):
I brought those single served fireballs from Walgreens. Oh yeah,
put undies. I didn't want to get freshed and then
lose my back Street Boys because I was smuggling drinks
in there.

Speaker 4 (01:03:16):
Can I ask when you're smuggling shots of fireballs in
your rundies into a Backstreet concert, there's a sentence do
you put the fireball in the front of your undies
or do you put it into.

Speaker 3 (01:03:28):
Your crack in the front either side of junk? Okay, yeah,
because I forgured if they're going to frisk me, they
won't go.

Speaker 4 (01:03:34):
As high as right as the balls, because like for
us ladies, like where do we put it?

Speaker 8 (01:03:38):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (01:03:39):
Can you stop focusing on that part? Can we talk
about the Backstreet Boys.

Speaker 4 (01:03:42):
I'm just thinking about for future reference, like if I'm
going to smuggle it down the front?

Speaker 3 (01:03:46):
Yeah, okay. I sat next to this lovely mother and
daughter that were there to see the Backstreet Boys. Right,
everybody goes dressed in white, just like a Backstreet Boys
video and just just costs a lot of money that show.

Speaker 5 (01:04:04):
You had to hook up with one of them, who
would you hook up with?

Speaker 3 (01:04:08):
Probably Kevin?

Speaker 5 (01:04:09):
Kevin's pretty god.

Speaker 3 (01:04:10):
They're all looking very good.

Speaker 4 (01:04:12):
Yeah, they all look great.

Speaker 3 (01:04:13):
They're looking really good.

Speaker 4 (01:04:15):
I think that's probably a key part to that whole
thing that they're all there, they're all looking good, and
then you're in this amazing venue, Like I mean, it
doesn't get better than that.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
You want to know how much I paid for me?

Speaker 8 (01:04:28):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:04:28):
Yeah, that's right. You haven't told us how much you
paid for the ticket. We've been asking, and he hasn't
told us because he was embarrassed about how expensive it was.
Don't lie too, because we will find out.

Speaker 3 (01:04:38):
I'm not embarrassed because I don't regret it, okay, but
it was a lot of money.

Speaker 4 (01:04:42):
Because you were right in the middle.

Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
I bought the ticket on the day of the show,
so it was kind of like an impulse thing. I've
been thinking about going.

Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
Surely you get like a deal last day.

Speaker 3 (01:04:53):
I thought I might get a good price because I
was sitting alone, so that you've got to fill and
you got to plug the gaps in the crowd.

Speaker 4 (01:04:59):
You'd think, so.

Speaker 3 (01:05:01):
My ticket, my ticket costs after the conversion.

Speaker 4 (01:05:06):
So I was like, yeah, I'm going to convert it.

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
Yous like four hundred or dollars US plus booking fee
in Texas.

Speaker 4 (01:05:16):
So how much altogether us?

Speaker 3 (01:05:19):
How much I thought I thought when I did the
conversion and I was I was sort of rationalizing it
with my wife. I was like, should I do it?
I said to her, baby, it's going to cost seven
hundred dollars New Zealand for the Speckstreet Boys.

Speaker 11 (01:05:30):
To how much?

Speaker 3 (01:05:31):
Should just do it? Just do it? Once in a lifetime, chance,
just do it. I checked my credit card when I
got back from Las Vegas, and my Backstreet Boys ticket
cost me eight hundred and fifty dollars. But I regret nothing.
It was one of the most incredible shows I've ever seen,
and you got to hook up with Kevin. So it's all.

Speaker 4 (01:05:56):
Pay no regrets.

Speaker 3 (01:05:57):
Eight hundred and thirty dollars. It got more than my
John tickets.

Speaker 4 (01:06:02):
But I mean, it's once in a lifetime. It's I mean,
you can't you can't put a price on that, or
you can. It was over.

Speaker 3 (01:06:10):
You can't put a price. It's just so I have
a thousand dollars. Anyway, they're going back there in February.
If you are anywhere in the United States and February,
you have to go to that show.

Speaker 4 (01:06:19):
I just want to go to the sphere.

Speaker 3 (01:06:21):
Yeah, I just want to go.

Speaker 4 (01:06:22):
I mean, imagine, even like you know, put a home
movie on.

Speaker 3 (01:06:25):
So during the day they show the Wizard of Oz
and there, oh.

Speaker 4 (01:06:29):
They see that would be epic.

Speaker 3 (01:06:30):
Yeah, and that's only one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:06:33):
Just put that Lama video on, you know in the sphere.

Speaker 3 (01:06:38):
Yeah, that's a good idea too.

Speaker 7 (01:06:39):
It's z it ms Brilling Clinton Podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:06:42):
We said before that our producer Ella is experimenting with
her fiance or sorry, husband, So it's all legit. They're married,
don't worry, they are.

Speaker 4 (01:06:51):
Spicing it up.

Speaker 3 (01:06:53):
Married before the eyes of the Lord. They can do
whatever they're live.

Speaker 4 (01:06:56):
So trying something different.

Speaker 3 (01:06:59):
Something you guys haven't done before to keep things interesting. Ella,
what is it that you and your husband are doing
this week?

Speaker 11 (01:07:05):
We're doing a no spinned week.

Speaker 4 (01:07:10):
With all like fun, raunchy things, no spend week. That
sounds so lame.

Speaker 9 (01:07:17):
It is so lame, and I'm mad about it because
I like buying things.

Speaker 3 (01:07:22):
Explain to us. I mean, it seems pretty self explanatory,
but tell us how does a no spin week work?

Speaker 9 (01:07:27):
Basically, it's like just trying not to buy anything that's
just unnecessary.

Speaker 3 (01:07:33):
Is it trying or is it not buying?

Speaker 11 (01:07:35):
Buying?

Speaker 4 (01:07:36):
Has your card been taken off you? No?

Speaker 3 (01:07:38):
Can you buy a petrol. Yeah, so that's like, can
you buy can you buy a coffee?

Speaker 11 (01:07:43):
No?

Speaker 9 (01:07:43):
So no coffees, no lunches because I love sushi at lunch.

Speaker 11 (01:07:50):
I can't pre order the new Harry Styles album.

Speaker 4 (01:07:53):
Okay, that's I would do that, but you're going to
get the album anyway. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:07:58):
True, But like a cat, I want to you know
when you I want to buy this thing?

Speaker 4 (01:08:04):
Whatever will you do? So?

Speaker 3 (01:08:06):
Is it Monday to Friday or is it a seven
day thing?

Speaker 11 (01:08:08):
Monday to Monday.

Speaker 3 (01:08:09):
So that's harder because it involves the weekend as well,
So you can't spend money on experiences. You and Ryan
can't go to a movie this weekend. So what do
you do a cafe together?

Speaker 9 (01:08:19):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:08:19):
Do you have to talk to each other? Yes?

Speaker 11 (01:08:21):
I know?

Speaker 9 (01:08:21):
Or he said read, which I'm trying to. But now
when he tells you to read, I don't want to read.

Speaker 3 (01:08:26):
You can't buy a book.

Speaker 11 (01:08:27):
No, I've got a Cobo.

Speaker 4 (01:08:28):
Now can you watch TV? Like with a streaming service?
Are paying for them?

Speaker 11 (01:08:35):
Don't tell him that? But yeah, that should be fine.

Speaker 3 (01:08:37):
Well, no, you're already you're already subscribing to it, so
surely that doesn't count.

Speaker 11 (01:08:41):
Yeah, But like.

Speaker 9 (01:08:42):
We just did it because I'm spending a lot of
money on dumb, unnecessary things and I want to see
if I can actually do it.

Speaker 3 (01:08:48):
I think the principle is good as like a financial reset. Yeah,
and also I mean, if you take a week spending
out of your month, that's that's pretty good. The issue
for me is it's the same as crash dieting. It
just will never be more sustainable or going really hard
at the gym. You're going to at the back of
this have a blowout. You're going to go You're going

(01:09:11):
to go seven days without spending any money, and on
the end of it, you're going to go, oh, that
was so hard. We should treat ourselves.

Speaker 4 (01:09:17):
Yeah, let's just buy all the things. So you know
what a great goal I think ella is and a
goal I set myself last year is I was like,
I just don't want to buy lunch at when I'm
at work. Yeah, you know, that's a really like reasonable
good goal where I'm like, don't buy lunch for five
days a week. On the weekends, i'd buy, you know,

(01:09:39):
some lunch maybe, but when I'm at work, I bring
my lunch. Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 11 (01:09:43):
I think we can scale it down eventually.

Speaker 6 (01:09:46):
Just to that.

Speaker 3 (01:09:47):
Also, if you're thinking about buying a cat hammock, say
it out loud to somebody and if they laugh at you, Yeah,
maybe reconsider that purchase.

Speaker 4 (01:09:54):
You know, did you see that girl that's on TikTok
and everyone follows her and she does this thing where
she can only buy one thing a month, like in
terms of her wardrobe, in terms of clothes, she can
only buy one clothing item a month. Sounds like torture me.

Speaker 3 (01:10:11):
Well, it sounds like what most people do. How many
items of clothing? Do you think you've got a problem
with buying clothes?

Speaker 4 (01:10:18):
You know, I'm turbing that this year.

Speaker 3 (01:10:21):
One thing a month sounds quite good.

Speaker 5 (01:10:23):
Yeah, But like then do you what if I need ndies?
You have sixty piers.

Speaker 4 (01:10:31):
But also I feel like too many.

Speaker 3 (01:10:32):
I feel like it's like groceries andndayes would fall outside
the scope of this. Undies are an essential, you know,
I used to be another pair of sambas. Maybe not essential.

Speaker 4 (01:10:42):
They're not for me, they're from they're from my mum
to my partner for birthday. They're not buying.

Speaker 11 (01:10:48):
Can you buy me a cat hammick this week?

Speaker 4 (01:10:50):
Okay? What website?

Speaker 3 (01:10:53):
Well, good luck?
